Those who make fun of Deepika Padukone’s mental health are sick themselves! Is it justified to laugh at illness?


Recently, actress Deepika Padukone’s depression and motherhood was made fun of in a comedy show, which was not only inhumane at the level of humanity, but also weakened the fight for awareness about a serious problem like mental health. Why? Read:

,Deepika Padukone Recently became a mother. Great, now they will understand what depression really looks like…. Here I am not insulting breakup depression, in fact I am. Can you believe that being a mother to a woman, that too successful like Deepika Padukone, can be a ‘joke’ for someone? Can their mental illness also be made fun of? Perhaps not, but sadly, even in our so-called civilized society, there is no dearth of insensitive people with such poor thinking. The latest example of this was seen recently in a comedy show ‘India’s Got Latent’, where a female comedian was seen making a shallow sexist joke on Deepika Padukone’s depression and motherhood and famous people like Tanmay Bhatt, Samay Raina, Raghu Ram were sitting in the jury. Faces were seen laughing loudly at this. Whereas, making a serious problem like depression and a sacred feeling like motherhood a laughing stock is not comedy, it is cruelty. For this reason, people took all this to task on social media and called out lies.

The joke of depression is not comedy, it is badness.

People slammed the comedian and the jury members and rightly wrote that these people should be ashamed, because depression is no joke. Nor is becoming a mother depression. Many people do not understand its seriousness until it happens to them. Likewise, there is a lack of awareness about it. If someone tells about his/her anxiety or depression, people do not understand or make fun of him/her, that is why many people are not able to tell about it openly.

In such a situation, Deepika made people aware by talking about her depression. After that, many other celebrities including Karan Johar confessed about their mental problems and taking therapy. At a time when many people struggle with mental problems and even commit suicide but are unable to tell it to anyone, Deepika showed courage to talk about her weak moments and you are making fun of her courage. Because of such people, people shy away from talking about mental illnesses.

Samay Raina and Tanmay Bhatt have been infamous

This act, which makes fun of many emotional moments like motherhood, breakups, mental illness, is inhuman on many levels. But what can be expected from a show whose creator is Sam Raina, who calls himself the king of dark comedy. Samay Raina has not only been infamous for making cheap sexist jokes like ‘Gold Digger’ on the divorce of actress Kusha Kapila, but his/her reaction to the uproar over this act was that people should vent their anger on his/her YouTube channel instead of social media. , so that they can benefit financially. At the same time, Tanmay Bhatt has also been in controversies for making fun of legends like Lata Mangeshkar and Sachin Tendulkar.

If not the beauty, the height, then at least spare the disease.

These comedians, who say anything to anyone in the name of comedy, often claim freedom of expression, but what are you saying? Who are you telling? There should be some limit to this. You might remember actor Will Smith slapping host Chris Rock on the Academy Awards 2022 stage. Will Smith also had to bear the brunt for this, but here too Chris Rock chose a terrible disease like cancer of Will’s wife Jada for comedy, which was very insensitive.

Is it appropriate to make fun of someone’s illness and laugh at it? Is it justified to insult someone in the name of comedy? Because often people are insulted publicly in the name of comedy. Sexist, racist, inhuman and objectionable jokes are made on people’s problems, their shortcomings, appearance, height, failure etc., at which one is expected to laugh. There is an argument for taking the joke as a joke.

It is common to enjoy the shortcomings and troubles of others in comedy.

But just think, if a woman loses her hair due to cancer or is suffering from depression, then what will be her state of mind? If you make fun of him/her in front of a crowd, can it be a laughing matter? But it is common in comedy acts to enjoy the shortcomings, weaknesses and troubles of others. In the shows of comedians like Kapil Sharma, Krishna Abhishek, people’s fatness, shortness and dark complexion are also made fun of, on which many celebrities have even expressed their objection and should also do so, because it is worth thinking whether such jokes By making and laughing at them, aren’t we promoting evils like apartheid and body shaming?

Depression is not a joke, it is an epidemic.

Well-known psychiatrist Dr. Harish Shetty calls this video shameful. According to Dr. Harish Shetty, the way depression is made fun of in this video is shameful. In India, depression has become an epidemic. We are trying every possible way to save people and Deepika, no matter what your opinion is, she raised her voice about this, made people aware and saved many lives.

The way depression is made fun of in this video is shameful. I see 8-10 patients every day who say they want to die. We save them with great difficulty, some are not even able to save. In such a situation, making fun of someone’s mental illness to make a name for yourself is cheap.
